Induction loops are so simple, but companies charge so much for them!

All that is needed is a loop of wire around the auditorium, the resistance
(impedance) of which needs to match the output from the amplifier to the
speakers.
Then putting the hearing aid onto the T s(alternative) setting will permit
you to hear!

It jus takes a little effort ton the part of the hall owner!

,
Does the Temple have a device which allows people to hear with their
receivers.
Some churches have this so that people can use a device to hear what is
going on.
I think these things are also used at NFB National and State Conventions.
